Well, although this won't wait until exactly when the image creation is done, you could use a meta refresh tag to refresh to your new page after a certain number of seconds... Create a php page with whatever code you need, and then have something like this: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv= "refresh" content="5;URL='targetpage.php'"> <title>Please Wait</title> </head> <body> Please wait... </body> </html> This example would wait 5 seconds before loading targetpage.php.

Hi guys, I would like to display something like: "please wait, uploading" while I am doing a image creation which takes a while. After the work is done, it should redirect to another page displaying something like upload ok. As far as I know the HEADER location satement is only valid if there is no output in front. So I can't just echo the sentence. Does anybody know the trick? Thanx for your help. Cheers Andy
